I won't let any of mine go unless I'm left with no choice. I've built my accumulation slowly and each one of my airguns were carefully chosen to fill a niche. Spending so much time on each one getting it shooting the way I want, learning how to tune them and then shooting the snot outta them have earned them a permanent home with me.

None of my beloved guns are safe. I am totally in love with all of them right up until I’m not. I am a family man, that said in order to get something new something has to go. A recent 10 meter pistol purchase cost me three perfectly good Airguns. I would never use household money for my hobbies. Thankfully the wife gives me a little cash each week that I dutifully squirrel away.

My go-to airgun is my trusty Crosman 1077. This baby has been with me through thick and thin, from plinking sessions in the backyard to those unforgettable camping trips with friends. There's just something about its reliable performance and lightweight feel that keeps me coming back. One time, I was out camping and stumbled upon a group of curious raccoons raiding our food stash. With a swift shot from my Crosman, I scared them off without causing any harm.

I would agree with the one who said the choice moves around at times.
I don't see me getting rid of my Bantam Sniper HR or my AR Challenger HFT.

There’s a few I won’t sell, my Anschutz and 2078A target guns for example. The Blue Streak, a few older Crosmans. I got most of mine for a specific reason and that’s why I keep them. My wife can sell them after I go.

Mike, am going to be watching the classifieds for your posts in the coming year / years… We “all” know “what” we “like” and works for us. To “any” newbie reading this… Keep reading “before” investing…

Don’t just buy Leshys unless you’re 100% sure . They aren’t cheap. If I’m selling my Leshiys most likely I’m out of the game.

Well there is a lot to consider with such a decision.
i have to look at this from the situation right now, not what might happen later. To shoot anything here, it must be silent. The other concern is energy.
HW95 .177 makes the most sense as a do all for me.
HW30 .177 almost same as the HW95 in value to me.
AA s500 Extra FAC 22, perfection.
But play this painful game there cam only be one.
The 1720 would be it if there had to be only one. 10 fpe of Supermag silence.

Mine is an easy choice because of a simple external constraint:
I would keep the one that long ago ceased to be manufactured (a Blue Streak). All two of my other guns can still be purchased new.
